899 Arrival at venue
In the past three weeks, Liv has not taken the initiative to contact Lu Yiqi because she does not want to disturb Lu Yiqi's preparation rhythm. He is devoted to work wholeheartedly, and she is the same. Everything can be waited until after the Super Bowl ends.
During this period, Lu Yiqi sent a photo. The snow-capped lake surface, dead branches hang down on the light blue ice surface, quiet and peaceful, and complementing the gray-blue sky above, with a unique beauty.
Liv also replied to a photo. In the hospital duty room at midnight, the faint blue sky extends from outside the window, and you can vaguely see the quiet appearance of the city, which is a different look compared to the daytime.
But that's all.
There is no call, no text message, and no communication, it is just a photo; however, Liv likes this way of getting along. They are all extremely busy. After they start working, they get used to being busy so hard that they don’t touch the ground. They don’t have time to pay attention to their phones all the time. Occasionally, a brief communication is enough.
Seeing his friends eager to try to make a comment, Liv had to add, "We came for vacation, but they came for battle. Tampa is a different place for us, so we don't have to communicate about these things. I think you should be able to understand."
Clara and Carol exchanged a glance, noticed the complaints in Liv's words, and the tacit understanding of "you know me" was revealed in the depths of his eyes, but he just blinked playfully and exchanged opinions, but he did not continue to joke - the highest level is the point.
Then, Clara just muttered "vacation" and stretched out her big lazily, picked up her cocktail, and brought some sea smell to make people completely relax and truly enjoy it; while Liv looked towards the stadium as if nothing had happened, escaped from work and relaxed, and her thoughts found a space for breeding and spreading:
Now should be the time for the official Super Bowl press conference? I wonder if the reporters are making things difficult for him again...wait, or is he making things difficult for the reporter?
Indeed, the official Super Bowl press conference is being prepared at this moment, and the annual highest feast is beginning in full swing.
The noise and prosperity of the Pro Bowl have just come to an end, and the Super Bowl craze has begun to heat up. At the first moment, all the attention has been projected.
Compared to the starry sky of the Pro Bowl, the Super Bowl is the most important final battle this year. The unremitting publicity from the league officials has brought all eyes to the crowd.
Lu Yiqi's "Miracle Journey" alone has created countless topics, and the hot discussions can easily set new highs, comparable to Kurt Warner's "Cinderella Miracle" and Tom Brady's "Ugly Duckling Myth", which has become one of the most watched Super Bowls in the past decade.
In addition, there are countless topics about Green Bay Packers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers, and fans on both sides have burst into unlimited enthusiasm.
With the official opening of the Super Bowl, everyone in North America has come out in full swing. All journalists and fans can't wait to swarm towards Tampa and arrive in the city early. Otherwise, they may need to stay on the streets in the next few days because they can't find a place to stay.
Of course, staying on the streets during Super Bowl weekends is not the most terrible thing, because even if there is no place to keep the wind and rain, they can still hang out all night in the bar and always find ways to spend the weekend. Compared with basic living needs, carnivals day and night are the real key.
This year's Super Bowl finale will be held at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.
From the league's standpoint, they expect the Super Bowl to be played in good weather conditions, because it is a guarantee of the excitement and ratings of the game; and they prefer that the Super Bowl can be held at the open court, because this can truly show the atmosphere of the rugby scene-
It is a good thing for live broadcasts, because the audience in front of the TV can feel the atmosphere more clearly and look forward to going to watch the football on site. This can also be regarded as another form of "planting grass".
It is also because of this that southern cities with pleasant weather like New Orleans, Miami, Tampa, Atlanta, and San Diego are always popular. This is the fifth time Tampa has held the Super Bowl. For the Super Bowl that has only arrived at the 43rd, it is a very high frequency.
In the Super Bowl of 1995, the Pittsburgh Steelers fought against the Dallas Cowboys in Tampa. Unfortunately, the Pittsburgh Steelers lost the final battle with a score of 17:27. The next weekend, the Pittsburgh Steelers came to Tampa again to play against another team with excellent historical traditions. For Pittsburgh Steelers fans, they definitely don’t want to repeat the memories from thirteen years ago, which is also a major highlight of the Super Bowl.
Tampa City Hall is also particularly proactive in hosting the Super Bowl. It has changed its main venues three times in just 30 years to ensure that each venue can give the Super Bowl the most complete and outstanding environment. This year's Raymond James Stadium was newly completed in 1998. It first hosted the Super Bowl for the 2000 season, and then after eight years, it once again became the venue for the Super Bowl.
It is worth mentioning that the NFL League has a very special spell about the Super Bowl venue:
Home spell.
Simply put, the team at the Super Bowl venue every year cannot enter the Super Bowl. No team has been able to break such a curse in the past forty-three years, and this year's Tampa Bay Pirates are no exception.
As the Super Bowl champion of the 2002 season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers fell into a long trough after reaching the top. They finally found the feeling of winning this season again. Fans are vaguely looking forward to the team being able to return to the playoffs and even further reach the Super Bowl at home. As a result... they met the Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers who performed slightly better.
With the Carolina Panthers playing well to the top of the division championship, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers could only win wild cards, and their final record of nine wins and seven losses made them watch the ten-win and six losses of Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers join hands to enter the playoffs and missed the playoffs opportunity.
It is precisely because of this that Tampa fans have some misconceptions about the Green Bay Packers—
Although they also know that they should not vent their anger on the Green Bay Packers, it is enough to target the Atlanta Falcons in the same area; but when facing the two Super Bowl teams, their mentality is inevitably broken and slightly tilted towards the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Green Bay Packers' support rating is slightly weak.
Slightly.
